Simon J. Myers is a Neurologist based in Penrith, NSW 2751. He looks after people who live with nervous system conditions, especially ones that can run in families.
In many cases, Simon’s work involves inherited nerve and skin-related problems. This can include Hereditary Sensory Neuropathy Type 1 (HSN1) and Hereditary Sensory and Autonomic Neuropathy Type 2. These conditions can affect how people feel pain, heat, and touch. They can also change how the body controls automatic functions like sweating and other day-to-day body jobs.
Simon also supports patients with anhidrosis, which is when sweating is reduced or stops. When this happens, people may feel overheated more easily. It can be scary and tiring, so the plan usually focuses on practical steps to help day-to-day comfort and safety.
Some patients see Simon for CACH Syndrome and Hajdu-Cheney Syndrome. These are longer-term conditions, and they can bring a mix of symptoms that needs careful, steady follow-up. Over time, Simon works with people to make sense of what’s happening and to help them manage the ups and downs.
He also treats fungal nail infections as part of broader care. While that may sound a bit separate from neurology, skin and nail problems often show up alongside other health issues, and it helps when one clinician can consider the bigger picture.
Simon has completed specialist training in neurology. That means he’s set up to assess nervous system symptoms, work through likely causes, and help guide treatment choices that fit each person and their family situation.
When relevant, care can involve thinking about genetics and inherited patterns. Treatments and testing options can vary a lot between individuals, so the approach is usually calm and step-by-step. Research is still moving in this area, and new ideas can slowly change what people can expect over time.
Clinical trials aren’t listed here, but Simon stays focused on up-to-date options and real-life goals. For many patients in Penrith and nearby areas, that steady support and clear explanations matter just as much as any specific test or medicine.
